MILEAGE ACCUMULATION
There is no Star Alliance frequent flyer programme. There are 19 frequent flyer programmes, all operating
independently. Customers of any Star Alliance member airline’s frequent flyer programme (see chart) can
accrue miles, kilometres or points* when they travel on any eligible Star Alliance member airline flight on a
fare eligible for mileage accrual.
In addition, when travelling on Star Alliance member flights, miles or points count toward higher member-
ship status in the customer’s chosen frequent flyer programme.
To ensure successful membership accrual, passengers should quote the frequent flyer number on their
membership card, show their card, and save passenger receipts and boarding passes in case retroactive
crediting is necessary.
*Qualifying accruals vary by frequent flyer programme and are subject to paid fares. Air New Zealand’s frequent flyer currency is Airpoints Dollars.

PRIOR I T Y BA G G AG E H AN D L IN G
Priority Baggage Handling Policy
Identification of priority bags is achieved by two separate and alternative methods which are used for premium cus-
tomers. The Star Alliance priority tag features the Star Alliance logo and the word “PRIORITY” and it should be attached
to the bag tag to make it highly visible and recognisable by all baggage handling staff. The second method is where
the word “PRIORITY” is printed on the bag tag from a kiosk when customers self-tag their bags. Both of these meth-
ods are used to ensure that the bags will be placed on the arrival belts/carousels before all other baggage.
This harmonised policy will ensure that our most valued customers receive consistent baggage handling service
and this policy sets the minimum standard to be applied by all airlines. Recognition of priority status at check-in and
the priority handling of checked baggage is offered to the following customers:
First Class
On all flights
NOTE: Some carriers do not provide First Class service.
Business Class
On intercontinental flights including connecting flights (for this purpose intercontinental is defined as travel between
Europe, Asia, North America, South America, Australia, New Zealand and Africa).
NOTE: Some airlines offer Priority Baggage Handling to all business class customers.
